Maher Arrives On Loan

Bolton full-back Niall Maher has joined Blackpool on loan for a month.

The 19-year-old links up with The Seasiders in time to make the trip to Watford with the squad this weekend.

"We’ve been to watch him a couple of times this season and he’s impressed us. He can play both full-back positions really well and he’s really quick and strong," manager Lee Clark said.

"We only have one real recognised right-back at the club in Tony and he’s had a little niggly injury, so we needed to bring someone in there. We need pressure in all positions and we feel he can help us."
